Good move.

Have you actually given notice (31 days) to Sky yet of your intention to cancel?

If you have, you'll probably already have an offer to stay of 50% discount for 12 months or even 60% discount. Once you go through with the disconnection of services and not give in to their offers and pressure sales, that discount will likely jump to 75% plus £50 or £100 credit.

Anyone paying full rack rate for such a lousy service needs to have a word with themselves

If you have the time or inclination to search through stream after stream on Kodi to find a decent free one then fair play. I tried this method but did not have the patience! For about 13p a day I'm not complaining



I've had SportsNationHD over a year now and it's been class, the IOS app takes it to another level for me. There's also a Sports on demand section where all the top games (including NRL) are stored and if you miss them airing live you can watch them whenever u want.

Will be phoning through a week on friday as new service will be installed some time late Jan. Yes i expect to get that kind of treatment, i know of a guy i work with been living off BT and SKY deals for a few years with the special offers for 6months at a time 'trials'..little like yourself i suspect?



I have been too lazy to barter to be fair. When i tot up the savings though i could have and will make in the future i probably do need to have a word

I don't know anything about free trials. I always pay but rarely do I pay full whack. Companies rely on people being lazy and therefore easy to rip off with extortionate prices.

I've saved over £1000 a year on TV subs, phone and broadband combined just by switching (or threatening to switch) every 12 months. I know I save over £400 a year in gas/electricity costs compared to standard charges. I've switched gas/elec three times in the last 18 months alone.

I have two broadband connections, Virgin (200Mbps) at half price and also an ASDL connection which I hardly use (It's either BT or Plusnet) which is often given free or just a few quid a month with the phone but it all comes in handy when I phone any of them up to cancel or re-negotiate another contract. I never ever throw in my lot for TV, phone and broadband bundles with just the one company as that weakens any negotiating position.

Makes sense. I need to change my ways!

oh, and i meant paying a significantly reduced fee like yourself,not for free as i stated.

So...

Stealing from someone you don't like is honourable (also illegal) and should be encouraged, even if you can afford the costs AND considering that it could have a huge effect on the future of the game you claim to love.

Families looking for discounted tickets to go to as many international games as possible during a tournament are cheapskates and not real fans of the game they pretend to love.

Troll Logic.







Oh and there was only 1 game at a fiver.... that was in Ireland. Nobody went.

Burrow: Segeyaro saga won't derail us (unlike this thread...) www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/s ... -1-8290029 Can't say the prospect of 34 year old Burrow as first choice hooker fills me with optimism for 2017... I wonder who the sleeve will deliver?

who? or if? depends if he has learnt his lesson from last year.
i'm not holding my breath

I'm sure it will be bargain basement time - I'm thinking O'Brien from Bradford absolutely fits the bill in this regard. Free, cheap, can put some spin on him being 'one of hottest young hookers in the game'.... despite the fact 'average' is his absolute ceiling...

I would say keeping your squad fit in 2017 might help your situation.A situation you have yet to prove.Minimal recruitment made,whats to say you won't be in that middle 8's again.

most of us agree with you. looking bleak

www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/s ... -1-8302879 Segeyaro's contract has been cancelled and we are no longer paying him but still have his registration and aren't letting him go until someone offers a reasonable fee. Would imagine Cronulla are/were hoping to wait until Leeds just said he could go for nothing now that we have a replacement and GH is standing his ground on getting some sort of fee.

If no one is prepared to pay a fee GH will simply let him rot - that would be difficult to enforce - restraint of trade and all that especially if there is now no contract in place.

just let it go. we have a replacement.

I'm with GH on this one - let him rot. Even with Christmas spirit I can't forgive his treachery.

Chicko's made his bed. Let him lie in it.

He gave zero-s about the consequences of his decision for Leeds Rhinos, so he deserves to be at the bottom of our 'to do list' since we've sorted a replacement.

Foot note: Segeyaro literally defines as '-house' in Pacific tongue.

I agree - GH's stance is petty and small-minded

Time to move on

it could also alienate other potential signings

Or may make other players (current/future) think about future conducts/decisions.

Such as Parcell who signed up for 3 years? Judging from the Cronulla fans responses on the issue quite a lot are praising Leeds for standing their ground and not just letting him leave. I'd imagine most players if they were on Leeds' radar and were interested in coming to the UK and playing in SL wouldn't let Segeyaro's choice of action stop them from coming.

Nothing is stopping Segeyaro from becoming an NRL player except the NRL teams (namely Cronulla) not being bothered to pay any sort of fee. Nobody is expecting the £250k or even close to it but at the moment it doesn't look like they've even offered anything. Why let somebody go for free when we can get some money for him.

Hold out as long as possible. A message needs to be sent that this type of thing is not acceptable. It will probably get resolved and Segeyaro will get his wish in a few weeks but why should we make it easy for him?

Pretty much this though I wouldn't be too fussed if he was left to sweat for a week or two.

I'm not a GH fan whatsoever but fwiw I think his stance is correct in we owe James no favours at all he's done us none so bo77ocks to him. Let him sweat until season starts.
One thing I do admire in GH is nobody takes the biscuit with him!

GH is a shrewd operator and will be waiting for Cronulla to offer the same fee as the undisclosed fee we've just paid Manly for Parcell so effectively getting the new hooker for free and possibly/probably on less wages than Segeyaro as well?

If this was someone trying to walk away mid-contract, I'd probably agree with GH, but the fact he wanted to change his mind just weeks after signing makes this a completely different scenario.

I've a lot of time for him and am one of those who thinks he gets little wrong in the grand scheme of things, but I think GH is making himself look an idiot taking this stance and so publicly. Would have been a much better message to just say 'Our club is bigger than any one player, and if James doesn't want to be here, then that's his loss and we'll let him go with our best wishes'.

I get the feeling GH is trying to use this situation to build some sort of public reputation, maybe trying to regain some credit after what has been a dismal 12 months.

Move on, we're better than this!

(P.s I still fully expect Segeyaro to be named a Cronulla player for an undisclosed fee in probably the first week of January)
